For a while, the jeep was bogging down, misfiring and had a really rough idle. Now it won't start at all.
Its turning over but wont fire. Pulled the plugs and I have a spark and fuel is definitely getting through.
Thought maybe crank position sensor, but would I have a spark if thing was out?
Thanks, Matt.
btw, 93' 2.5 4cyl 5 speed

Needs to be blue. Your coil may be taking a dive on you.
Last time you replaced cap, rotor, and wires?

Only owned this jeep for just over a year. I haven't replaced the above in that time. Suppose its a good place to start. Could grounds be a possibility?Originally Posted by cruiser54

I would at least replace the maintenance items.
See what brand name is on your coil. If it's Magnetti-Marelli, I think they were the bad ones.
